Small introduction about WSO2- One of the Srilanka largest IT company 
Brief Company History
WSO2 was founded by Sanjiva Weerawarana, Paul Fremantle and Davanum Srinivas in August 2005,
backed by Intel Capital, Toba Capital, and Pacific Controls. Weerawarana was an IBM researcher and a
founder of the Web services platform. He led the creation of IBM SOAP4J, which later became Apache
SOAP, and was the architect of other notable projects. Fremantle was one of the authors of IBM's Web
Services Invocation Framework and the Web Services Gateway. An Apache member since the original
Apache SOAP project, Freemantle oversaw the donation of WSIF and WSDL4J to Apache and led IBM's
involvement in the Axis C/C++ project. Fremantle became WSO2's chief technology officer (CTO) in
2008,and was named one of Infoworld's Top 25 CTOs that year. In 2017, Tyler Jewell took over as
CEO. In 2019, Vinny Smith became the Executive Chairman.
WSO2's first product was code-named Tungsten, and was meant for the development of web applications
. Tungsten was followed by WSO2 Titanium, which later became WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus (ESB). In
2006, Intel Capital invested $4 million in WSO2, and continued to invest in subsequent years. In 2010,
Godel Technologies invested in WSO2 for an unspecified amount, and in 2012 the company raised a third
round of $10 million. Official WSO2 records point to this being from Toba Capital, Cisco and Intel Capital. In
August 2015, a funding round led by Pacific Controls and Toba raised another $20 million.
The company gained recognition from a 2011 report in Information Week that eBay used WSO2 ESB as a
key element of their transaction-processing software. Research firm Gartner noted that WSO2 was a leading competitor in the application infrastructure market of 2014.
As of 2019, WSO2 has offices in: Mountain View, California; New York City; London, UK; São Paulo,
Brazil; Sydney, Australia; Berlin, Germany and Colombo, Sri Lanka. The bulk of its research and operations are conducted from its main office in Colombo.
A subsidiary, WSO2Mobile, was launched in 2013, with Harsha Purasinghe of Microimage as the CEO
and co-founder. In March 2015, WSO2.Telco was launched in partnership with Malaysian
telecommunications company Axiata, which held a majority stake in the venture.WSO2Mobile has since
been re-absorbed into its parent company. Historically, WSO2 has had a close connection to the Apache
community, with a significant portion of their products based on or contributing to the Apache product
stack. Likewise, many of WSO2's top leaders have contributed to Apache projects. In 2013, WSO2
donated its Stratos project to Apache.

Company technology focus
In overview of the digital transformation landscape, They discussed how the stunning pace of innovation in information technologies has allowed the information aspects ofevery product and service to grow in importance—in some cases to such an extent that the information itself becomes the product or service: a “digital product.
”This trend creates both opportunities and threats. The web provides universal access to the entire global market, new ways to connect with prospects, and instant self-service delivery of digital products. The competitive field is open to anyone, not just those with massive investments and established relationships. Those who outpace the competition in capitalizing on information maintain relevance and gain competitive advantage. The rest may fall prey.Digital products improve your business prospects in three fundamental ways: New digital services can expand your line of products and services or add value to existing products or services.
Beyond improving the product itself, new mobile and social experiences enhance interactions with existing customers and attract new audiences of potential customers. Or digital technologies can improve operational insight and efficiencies and improve margins for your business. Orienting toward digital opportunities is not a matter of successfully executing a single project, such as introducing a mobile app. Long-term success is achieved through systematically increasing the capacity to adapt and innovate to changing technologies.
A business must cultivate the creativity to marry new technology possibilities with unique business value. It needs to develop the ability to capitalize on opportunities through the quick and flexible execution of IT projects. And it must deploy an IT architecture and platform that supports rapid development and delivery of scalable, secure, intelligent digital products.
The ongoing discipline to improve these three capabilities—digital creativity, continuous execution, and evolving the infrastructure for digital business—is encapsulated in the term “digital transformation.”
This white paper looks specifically at fundamental components of the architecture and infrastructure supporting digital transformation, including capabilities for:
- Making the business programmable through APIs
- Programming the business using integration systems
- Maintaining solid identity and security practices
- Learning from usage and integrating intelligence into the system with real-time smart analytics
- Exploiting the potential of IoT and mobile devices
- Increasing agility through the adoption of open source and cloud systems
Company Culture
Across the 18 core culture metrics, WSO2 is rated an A+ by the 25 employees that have left culture ratings.
When evaluating the question “should I work at WSO2?” you should ask yourself if you prioritize
Happiness, Perks And Benefits, and Compensation. If those culture dimensions rank highly for you, then
WSO2 could be a great fit to apply for a job, as those metrics rank in the top 5 culture dimensions for
WSO2, with WSO2 Happiness being in the Top 5% for all similarly sized companies.
This being said, WSO2 does not score as highly for Professional Development or Environment.
A recent reviewer from the Engineering department said that the best part of their compensation package
was “On the time, a yearly increase
Clients and Operating regions
We were able to successfully launch the platform with limited remote trial support. Since then, we have had excellent support from the WSO2 team through both query support and incident troubleshooting and patching. Samuel Purchase
Principal Engineer – API Management Platform
Implementing WSO2 was a key part of our technical strategic vision of decoupling our legacy monolithic application stack to leverage an SOA hybrid-cloud based application architecture, helping us now bring products to market faster with better performance, scalability, and resiliency.” Michael Enos
Senior Director - Community and Platform.
MY CONCLUSION
"In my knowledge there are not doubts about WSO2 is one of the best IT company in Srilanka.it has higher growing rating and good customer's review."
